Thanks to all. Mapmask works. Yes the order to change to is ZXY. Map from coefficients indeed looks like the directly loaded map, jus the scale is different (I supplied no reference PDB)
The remaining issue is - a pain to automate. I tried Refmac- there is a mention of an sfall mode and I tried to input the map and a reference HKL .. In that case, refmac simply stops after reading the map. If I add a XYZIN to scale the map, I get a mtz but not from the map, which is never read. I am not even sure – this is from the EM part in the instructions – if this is intended to work in this fashion. Has somebody tried that successfully with an Xray map?

Also, it is generally a good idea to expand to P1 first, and use "SFSG 1" in sfall. There are still some "gotcha" space groups in the SFALL code for density near cell edges. I can't remember which ones now because years ago I started using SFSG 1 and the problem went away. -James Holton MAD Scientist On 5/14/2020 1:44 PM, Bernhard Rupp wrote: Hi Fellows, I am failing on conversion of a ccp4 map to mtz using Sfall I provide as a scale reference a mtz with FP SIGFP and R free All cell constants and SG 20 and map headers seem to agree.
